Doors are fabric and can be single handed. You can get a M1 in through the doors. The Finance Officer says the civy trailer goes inside this one or another one ;-)

Had it get robbed back in july. off my fuel cans*with motor oil* off road recovery supplies, and slave cable with nato adapter. Chain fall with slings. tools. come along. and ect. Had a rally the following day had it decked out. Came home from work and I guess the guy backed into my driveway and helped himself to my stuff.

Besides that I've been driving it to work a couple of times a week on frying oil. muahahhaha

What I did this week

Received three new windows, spin on fuel filter kit (primary & secondary), in process of installing 50 gallon saddle step fuel tank on drivers side (100 gallons total), removed old rusted front windows, getting ready to paint, replaced passenger side fender brace to replace bent brace.

Went to HD and picked up 10 sheets polyiso foam insulation, three sheets of 3/4 plywood and 5 2x4s, and 2x4 metal studs for camper conversion project. Then to top off everything, my official retirement is next month and so for a gift to myself I purchased a brand new colt m-4 carbine! Sweet!

Life is good!

Great Deuce day. My son Dano "The big man" came over to help me install two new Napa batteries in Brutus. We cleaned. De-rusted. Painted. Got it right. Brutus fired right up. We went on a beer and food run. I drove out. Dano drove us back. I call any day with Brutus and my boy Dan the Man a good day.

I've been in KS for almost two months and finally my Deuce caught up to me. Had it delivered on Thursday and I'm glad it's home.

Fixed one exhaust leak, now have to replace the flexible section (one i bought on ebay seems too short so not sure where to go there yet).
Got the custom tank done for the generator, now we are 100% stand alone.
Fabricated the brackets to locate the water tank up and in front of the tow hitch etc. Fits great in test fitting.
Have to get that on before we put the spare tire carrier below it (Tire is relocated to rear of truck under frame behind wheels).

Next step is the box to enclose generator and finish wiring.

Not sure when we can do that, we have an Injured Vets event next weekend.
